A 30-year-old man was shot and killed at an East Side bus stop early yesterday.

A truck driver making a delivery at the nearby Kroger at 2000 E. Main St. called Columbus police
after hearing shots fired around 1:40 a.m. He told the dispatcher that he saw two men standing at
the COTA bus stop and one run off.

“Some guy at the bus stop just fired off a gun and ran down the street,” the driver told the 911
dispatcher.

Willie L. Casey, who lived on the Near East Side, was pronounced dead by medics about 1:45 a.m.
Police said they have no suspects, except for a man wearing a red tank top and white shorts.
